Thailand is probably off the list not because of lack access to medical care, but because I couldn't scuba dive or go trekking in the jungle (no multi-day hikes, DEET, anti-malarial pills and probably no elephant riding - I would LOVE to see my OB's face if I ask her about that one! So far the pregnancy is going great but she seems somewhat conservative and doesn't want me to do any activities with risk of falling.) So I would prefer to "save" that trip for later. Although it is tempting, even if all I can do is eat lots of yummy Thai food and lounge around on a gorgeous beach (I can't believe I'm saying this!)

Thanks for the warnings about Croatia - I did actually have my doubts about both Croatia and even the Greek islands (not exactly Athens....) as far as distance/access to first class medicine. Maybe we will end up in the French or Italian countryside, eating good food and doing some easy hiking/biking.

Will keep you posted - fiancee reminds me that we have to finish planning the wedding first (you can tell where MY priorities lie! ) so I'd better go make some phone calls....
